             4.  Findings
             The history of banking relationship
             This  study  of  historical  Islamic  banking  relationships  will  give  information  regarding  the  bank’s
             customer  background  and  customer’s  relationship  with  their  banks.    Based  on  Table  II,  the  results
             showed  that  the  majority  of  customers  have  good  relationship  with  Islamic  banking  where  they  hold
             accounts above one to five years.


               Meanwhile, 36 percent customers have less than one-year experience with Islamic banking, 8 percent
             from  five  to  ten  years  and  2  percent  more  than  ten  years.    Thus,  the  greater  the  number  of  years’
             relationship between customers with their banks, the higher degree of their customers in holding the bank
